Clockwise TWS is such a blast. It's like recess.

Great video Man!! a couple things tho?
1. what's with the music? Makes me thinks of Cheech and Chong on the way to the beach! You need some Metallica or AC/DC to give it a sense of urgency!! Give it some adrenalin!! Some Trapt or sumthin!!
2. Either you're a pretty good driver (I am guessing you are) or why spend $70K ++ on a GT2 when youre keeping up with him effortlessly AND while listening to music from one of my frat parties in the early 80's!!!



Feeble attempt at humour there.

OG the Gt2 driver was taking it easy on me - probably running at 7/10's. One of our other buddies that we elephant walk with had a disastrous "off" the previous day and his car is probably a write-off.

OldGuy

OOOoohh I could see where that would raise the pucker factor abit, on your track event.

I also forgot you have the 710 kit too right?

eclou

Yes my car is a bit tweaked. 700hp plus Bilstein PSS10 Damptronics and Hoosier R6's. Subtract all that and I would be a moving chicane out there.

looks like fun

your buddy doesn't like apexes too much, does he?

eclou

Nah, he's just redistributing the talent...

allegretto

what I'm most jealous about is that your track appears to have huge run-offs. Not many firm objects to contact.

eclou

Being in Texas means you just have to work harder to find trouble

OldGuy

Alggretto the california tracks have HUGE run offs. Willow springs and BUtton willow only have a couple places to hit stuff. Buttonwillow takes a very skilled driver to hit the wall, You have to miss the apex on either way (CW or CCW) and then over correct into the wall. It happens.

infineon makes up fall all the other "safe" california tracks !

walls everywear...it's like a cross between spa and the long beach grand prix circuit
